In this series with LAD, the Diamondbacks lost the first 2 games by a combined 2 runs. I expect them to win the 3rd game and avoid getting swept, breaking a 9 game losing streak in the process.
After a rough start, Edwin Jackson has had 3.18 ERA and a superb WHIP of 0.926 in his last 3 games. He has gone 2-1 in those games and gave up only 14 hits in 22 innings pitched and a 4 to 1 K to BB ratio. Very impressive stats.
His opponent, CARLOS MONASTERIOS, is fighting to keep a #5 spot in the Dodgers rotation. Even though he has a 2.2 ERA, let's dig deeper into his 2 starts this season. In 9 innings, he has given up 8 hits and 2 HR's. His K to BB ratio is 1 to 1. These are not very impressive stats.
Advantage here is clearly for the Diamondbacks' #2 starter vs Dodgers' #5 starter. I know Diamodbacks have lost 9 in a row and are missing Reynolds in the lineup today. They should still get to Monsterios and avoid getting swept today.
